I'm building an air application (using adt packager) for iPad. I would like tracking some informations in my app so is it possible to embed Google Analytics library for Flash (.swc) in my packaged app ?
otherwise are there alternatives ways ?
Note: Currently, Flash tracking is available for any Flash content embedded in a web page. Tracking of data sent from Adobe Air, Shockwave, or via the Flash IDE (e.g. using Test Movie) is not supported at this time.
got this from https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/other/flashTrackingIntro
I am having better luck with this alternative native extension (ANE) for iOS and Android:
https://github.com/alebianco/ANE-Google-Analytics
GAForFlash (http://code.google.com/p/gaforflash/) v1.0.1.319 did work for me when compiling with AIR and running in ADL on Windows, but seems to work intermittently when compiling and running it on an Android or iOS device. The visual debug feedback reports it always sending correctly, but half the time GA never receives the data.
Both solutions can send both pageViews and events, but neither (currently) works with the new mobile app GA profiles so you need to use a classic web profile.
It is possible. I have it running in my pure AS3 AIR project for mobile.
See http://code.google.com/p/gaforflash/ there is a swc you can use there.

My apps will use some widgets to show web pages. But QTextBrowser just support HTML 4.1, and QtWebView just support QML, and QWebEngineView just spoport Linux/Unix/MacOSX/Windows. Why does QWebEngineView not support Android and IOS? It is the reason of Chromium donot support Android and IOS ?
Current mobie apps often use WebView to show web pages, so we can't wait for QWebEngineView. What is the official idea and plan?

iOS
Apple does not allow Chromium on iOS.
See rule #2.5.6 at https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#software-requirements -- Apps that browse the web must use the appropriate WebKit framework and WebKit Javascript.
Android
It is technically possible to add support for Qt WebEngine on Android, but this support does not exist at the moment.
See http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2013-September/013169.html for the reasons.
This is my interpretation:
It requires a lot of work. The Qt Company's resources are being spent in other areas.
An Android app that uses QWebEngineView will need to include the Qt WebEngine library, which is very large (~30 MB?). This is not desirable.
Preface: there are questions (some good, some bad) already in existance on StackOverflow about webRTC support on various browsers and platforms, including iOS. However I couldn't find anything definitive that was more recent than ~2012, and this is a rapidly-changing field.
I'm working on a browser-based webapp that uses webRTC for minimal-latency peer-to-peer data transfer (not for audio/video, unlike most applications it would seem - all I need is DataChannel).
I hit a snag when I started testing the data-transfer part of the project and discovered that iOS devices still don't natively support this in their built-in browsers (despite some recent rumors).
Bowser is a free open-source browser App for iOS that purports to support webRTC on iOS. The problem is that when I try to open the app, it simply crashes and closes. I've tested this on an iPhone 5 and 5s. Googling has failed to turn up alternatives - even Chrome for iOS doesn't currently support webRTC it seems.
My questions:
1) Are there alternative browsers (even iOS-version restricted) that are currently supporting webRTC, or is there anything promising coming down the pipeline?
2) Does Bowser actually work (webRTC) on iOS devices where it doesn't crash immediately upon launch?
3) What strategies have other people used to work around this limitation?
As of iOS 11, WebRTC is now supported in Safari: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/releasenotes/General/WhatsNewInSafari/Articles/Safari_11_0.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014305-CH13-SW1
Check out crosswalk project ( https://crosswalk-project.org )
This Provides runtime of Chromium engine for native support in older devices.
1) Are there alternative browsers (even iOS-version restricted) that are currently supporting webRTC, or is there anything promising coming down the pipeline?
Answer:
There is a Browser called Bowser that supports webRTC.
2) Does Bowser actually work (webRTC) on iOS devices where it doesn't crash immediately upon launch?
Answer:
It's not crashing as of now.But I couldn't successfully test with anything so far.I have raised an issue about it
3) What strategies have other people used to work around this limitation?
Answer:
Apple is yet to support WebRTC in Webkit so as of now the only way would be develop a native or Hybrid app that would support the unsupported WebRTC APIs.
You can develop a hybrid app powered by OpenWebRTC or cordova-plugin-iosrtc
Is there any way through which a flash content can be run on iOS devices?
I am getting two different view.
The link below says that it is possible that we can develop some flash application and run it on iOS devices.
http://www.adobe.com/inspire/2012/12/ios-apps-flash-cs6.html
But on the Apple website link it says running flash applications is not possible on iOS devices.
Can someone clarify if it is possible to run the flash applications on iOS?
You cannot run flash natively on iOS devices. Adobe does, however, provide a tool to run software built with flash on iOS devices.
This works in a similar way to Cordova/ Phonegap in that it takes your code and crosscompiles it into iOS code using other plugins and librarys.
As shown here:
http://www.infoworld.com/article/2623251/mobile-development/escape-the-ios-sdk--building-iphone--and-android--apps-via-flash.html
Safari on Mac OS will support Flash
Safari on iOS won’t support Flash.
We will need to write a native iOS app to deliver the functionality
i see tons of articles on why apple doesn't support flash in iOS and why flash won't work on ipads and ipods. I see lots of flash sites not work properly when i launch them with mhy ipad but now i see articles about flash supporting iOS so are all of those other articles wrong. Can i now write an application and flash and have it work on the web in ipad and iphones ??
Flash is not supported in the browser, however, you can package up a Flash application and install it on your iOS device. This should clear things up:
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/cs-55-web-premium-feature-tour-/flash-professional-cs55-publishing-content-to-ios-devices/
No. iOS does not support flash. What's more likely is that Adobe has released a crosscompiler that translates a flash binary into a native iOS application.
As far as I'm reading it, it means you can develop applications in flash and export them for iOS, not that flash is coming to iOS.
I am new to mobile development and I was wondering if the applications I develop using phonegap will work correctly on Blackberry OS 5 since they don't support it yet. I won't need any fancy features in my app and wanted to use phonegap to develop for Android, IPhone and Blackberry. But of course I am having problems with the different versions of Blackberry OS just like everyone else.
Thanx.
I had a chance to test this once. I have put my Phonegap application on 5.0 and observed how it behaves. Application has launched properly. But i Observed following issues.
HTML5 is supported but localStorage and sessionStorage is not supported.You need to find an alternative.
HTML Page transition is too slow. End used will certainly not accept the performance.
Few jQueryMobile API's don't work.
You cannot be sure that page will be viewed same as you see in 6.0+. Few elements get distorted.
You need to test each and every UI element and see if it is working proper.For example datepicker displays date on right side of the page instead of left
Few PhoneGap API's don't work or they crash.For example API to launch camera crashes.
After observing above issues i felt that even if phonegap is supported in 5.0 it doesn't make big sense.
Yes, but to run on OS version 4.x you have to target the PhoneGap BlackBerry application, while to run on OS version 5 or 6 you need to target BlackBerry Widgets / WebWorks -- the same application may work on both if you use compatible features, but you'll need two different builds, as though they were two different kinds of phone.
Now the support for earlier versions of BlackBerry has been withdrawn from Cordova 3.0 onwards, which in turn supports BlackBerry 10 only. Refer the following link for more details.
